Kushner, Morris -- "Exelereme" Bamboo Rod - 8'7 9wt Salmon and Steelhead Rods 7' 5wt two-pieceFor sale here is a very rare Morris Kushner "Exelereme" bamboo rod 8 feet 7 inches, two sections and one tip, for a 9 or 10 weight line. Kushner rods are very scarce as he made less than 200 rods (most people say ~100) in his Michigan shop from the early 1950's until his death in 1973. Kushner was a Russian immigrant who had a metal working operation not far from the Paul Young Rod Co. shop. He built all of his own rod making equipment. Bob Summers
